How is your day?

Are you ready to reap the reward of a hard week of learning? Okay then. Let’s get started by remembering what it is we learned this week.

First, we discovered the one step required by all those who have a need or prayer request. Whether they know it or not they had to do this one step. That step was to believe. Believing is an action word. One Step that Catapults You Into Deliverance took an account from scriptures that undeniably proves that.

Then, we looked at our schedules and learned to prioritize the Word into our busy lives with a few perspective adjustments. Adjustments that make it easier to take action and believe the Word in the first place.

Next, we learned the mechanics of believing with 6 posts in 1. The posts included there talked about how the human heart believes in the size of a mustard seed, but God’s believing is able to move mountains. We opened the cage doors of fear and we learned real exercises that build our faith. This post was loaded with sixty-plus years of study and research, not to mention practical field study behind it. WOW!

Finally, we learned that we aren’t alone here. We have a whole planet full of God’s creations who trust Him for their meat as well. God designed this world to be inhabited and we have the joy of learning from the other species He created as well.

Today we’re all about one subject.

Leadership

Greatness is dependent upon what you’ve got in your heart that you’ve transferred to your head. You’ve all heard that ninety percent of failure is due to the lack of making a decision.

This means that our actions come first. We do what God says to do even if we don’t “feel” like it then our emotions and thoughts will fall into place. I think this scripture divides the placating people pleaser from the truly hungry one. I never get on my son for having stubbornness or a “strong will” towards something. It takes the strong-willed to survive when the devil shoves you to the ground. It takes a mule-headed decision to trust God and His Word and not the peer pressure of man. I think I’m going to start giving out the O.G.A. the Obstinate for God Award because you must press hard with relentless, single-minded courage, while knowing your’s isn’t the popular plan.

I have a dear friend who, in spite of every college counselor’s urging, decided to go to law school and be debt free. Her professors and advisors told her that it is IMPOSSIBLE to do because you can’t work over ten hours a week while in school. She asked God if it was available, He said YES. Her faith in God grew every time a check plopped into her lap paying for another semester. Sometimes with the exact amount, arriving on the exact day she needed it! Does God need some bold believers out there who are undaunted by the devil’s distraction tactics? YES! He chose you. I dare you to believe. I dare you to stand with unpliable persistence on God’s Truth.

When the doubts or the worries or the fears creep in, you shout back in defiance…

“For God hath not given us (me) the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.” 1 Timothy 1:7

You take charge of your mind and your thoughts. You are the leader there. You and only you can insist on the renewed mind in your life as your standard operating procedure.

“Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;” 2 Corinthians 10:5

This is your time. You sink your teeth into the promises of God and like a bull-dog hang on! God has delivered you, He has saved you, He has promised you eternal life and healing. Now find out how, from Him.

Our next post will cover more on the abundant life. But for today, let God raise you up.
